I observe closely and listen attentively. I’m interested in how people think, speak, perceive their world. I love wild gardens, art, silence, archives, birds, Italian coffee, books, my friends, spices, the sea. I draw, read, garden, travel whenever I can, and probably suffer from a constant longing to be elsewhere. I think in a nuanced way and ask questions, sometimes uncomfortable ones, and I’m sensitive to what remains unspoken. I’m not looking for writing for its own sake but for a real connection: with interest, reliability, warmth and a genuine willingness to truly get to know each other.
